Our Weekend in a Nutshell: A Potty Training Update, A Visit with Friends and a Little Game of Where's Waldo
5 comments:
Love all of the pictures you got of our visit! Brynn has a little boyfriend--another friends' son--so I'm liking these Blake/Cora and Addie/Connor combos. Haha! Could you imagine the two of us helping to plan a wedding? Haha! The kids had a lot of fun, and Connor is still talking about that sleepover he and Addie were planning.
Congrats on the big half marathon today!!I kind of sort of teared up reading about how your Daddy-o surprised you. Ha! He's so sweet, and makes the cutest Waldo I've ever seen! Haha! You had such a blessed and exciting weekend, Twinnie. I'm impatiently waiting for Fitness Friday's post, but in the meantime I just have to say once again how proud I am of you :) You rock! xoxo
ReplyDeleteAww so many cute things in one post!!
First of all congrats on the race! It's so sweet that you and your Dad ran together. (I like your outfit by the way!)
And those pics of the kiddos are too cute! Do I spy a Polka Dot Posie flower on the girls shirts? I like the last picture best. It's so funny trying to ghet them to all be still, yet the final picture seems to good to try again. After all, it does capture them beng themselves doesn't it?

In September of 1994, the Judicial Conference endorsed the use of realtime reporting technologies by official court reporters, and in June of 1996, the Judicial Conference established a new category called realtime unedited transcript. The Guide to Judiciary Policies and Procedures defines realtime as "the instantaneous translation of the proceedings on a computer monitor." The realtime rough draft or any portion thereof is not the official transcript and may not be filed for any reason. The Guide clearly indicates that the unedited draft is not intended to be used in subsequent proceedings for impeachment or for any other purpose, including further distribution. A certified transcript must be purchased from the court reporter at a fee established by the Judicial Conference. Please see the Non-Appeal Transcript Order Form for order and fee information. The judges of this Court receive realtime transcript from court reporters. This service may also be provided to the attorneys/parties upon negotiation with the reporter. In order to be provided with this service, the following steps are necessary:
To arrange for realtime transcript, you may call:
Bruce A. Matthews, Chief Court Reporter: (216) 357-7207;
Julie Knabe, Court Reporter Coordinator: (216) 357-7035; or
the Court Reporter responsible for the transcript.

Sweet rose is by far the best tea. I drink the tea all day. Very calming.

The box does not lead you astray with its quote on the front: "Stress Relieving and Magical." It truly is! I love green teas and black teas but I haven't found many herbal teas I enjoy until I found this one. Its light, floral and delicious. If I could I would make everyone drink it...the world would be a better place because of it :)
Posted by Unknown on 1st Oct 2013
As an avid herbal tea tea drinker, I've found that the more "floral" teas are hit or miss. Either it's nearly perfect or it's so horrible you might consider never drinking herbal tea again. Rarely is there a middle ground.
Sweet Rose Tulsi is so near perfect I almost cried when I found out a local store stopped carrying it. I found this tea on clearance and decided to try it...I wished I'd bought the whole stock! It's AMAZING! The Tulsi is similar to any other basil flavor, but not as harsh as other teas. The rose is fabulous, but not overpowering. it's a very delicate yet robust tea, much like the plants themselves. I highly recommend it!
Posted by Andrea on 17th Sep 2013
I was kind of skeptical at first but it sounded enticing since it was made with rose petals.
Just had my first cup and now in love with this tea. The most aromatic, sensual, comforting cup of tea one could have.
Love, love, love it!!!
Posted by HERBALTLADY on 14th Feb 2012
I drink this tea whenever I feel overly stressed or sick.

Integration of porous layers in ordered pillar arrays for liquid chromatography
Malsche, Wim de and Clicq, David and Verdoold, Vincent and Gzil, Piotr and Desmet, Gert and Gardeniers, Han (2007) Integration of porous layers in ordered pillar arrays for liquid chromatography. Lab on a Chip, 7 (12). pp. 1705-1711. ISSN 1473-0197
Restricted to UT campus only : Request a copy 533kB |
Abstract: | The present paper describes a method for the production of partly porous micro-pillars in columns suitable for use in liquid chromatography. These layers increase the available surface at least two orders of magnitude without destroying the huge benefits of the ordered nature of the system. A process flow was developed that enabled us to create a 550 nm thick porous layer on the pillar array in a sealed channel configuration, withstanding pressures up to at least 70 bar. Measuring band broadening under non-retained conditions, only a modest increase in plate height was observed in the porous pillar array as compared to that in a non-porous pillar array. The homogeneity of the layers was demonstrated using an optical microscope and SEM pictures and by monitoring peak velocities at constant pressures. The internal porosity was determined using particles with a diameter larger than the mesopores in combination with a dye that could penetrate into the pores. |

Title: | Humboldtian Imagery and "the Humboldt of Australia" |
Author: | Home, RW |
Date: | 1998-10 |
Publisher: | University of Hawaii Press |
Citation: | Home RW. 1998. Humboldtian imagery and "the Humboldt of Australia". Pac Sci 52(4): 294-300. |
Abstract: | When the great German geographer August Petermann called
the botanist/explorer Ferdinand von Mueller "the Humboldt of Australia," what did he have in mind? Elaborating the circumstances of his doing so gives us a new view of Alexander von Humboldt's image among nineteenth-century scientists who declared themselves to be his followers and raises the question of how closely this might have corresponded with the notion of "Humboldtian science" that has been developed by present-day historians of science. |

Today's piece for the Daily Banter expands on the outrage over two commercials produced for this weekend's Super Bowl broadcast.
Here's the opening shot:
"There's an old saying that I used to live by but which I let fall by the wayside years ago because it kept getting me into trouble: It's better to ask for forgiveness than for permission. I'm sure you understand how this philosophy works, particularly if you're married. Basically you just go ahead and do whatever the hell you want, even if you know it'll infuriate your partner, and pretend to be sorry later. Sure, you'll spend some time in the dog house, but you got to do whatever it was you wanted to do in the first place. Beats asking if it's okay ahead of time and risking him or her telling you no. Nobody wins there. Well, you don't win, and that's really all that counts. (See why I eventually abandoned this way of thinking?)
Asking for forgiveness instead of permission is the selfish asshole's credo. If you are indeed a selfish asshole, it should be tattooed across your upper back.
With that in mind, I can't help but wonder why so many of the various companies paying a bloody fortune for ad space at this year's Super Bowl have decided to prerelease their commercials on the internet in the run-up to the game."

Victims of two separate accidents early Sunday morning were Daniel Rankin, 32, Eckhart, and Cecil Ashward Tomlinson, 78, RD 1, Frostburg. Mr. Rankin was killed instantly when he was thrown from his automobile which overturned at the intersection of U.S. Route 40 and State Route 55 at Clarysville. Dr. H. V. Denning, deputy county medical examiner, pronounced Rankin dead of a fractured neck at the scene. State Trooper Joseph V. Stakem, who arrived on the scene shortly after the Clarysville crash occurred, said Rankin apparently lost control of his car as he was traveling east on Route 40. A witness told the trooper Rankin's car was riding on the dirt shoulder of the highway. The witness, whose car was stopped on Route 55 waiting an opportunity to pull out into Route 40, thought his car was going to be struck. Instead, Rankin's vehicle struck the concrete island which separates the traffic lanes on Route 55, then swerved to the left and overturned. It struck the guardrail on the opposite side of the highway, throwing out Rankin, and then came to a stop 50 feet down the highway. Rankin was born at Frostburg, and was a son of the late Clayton and Pearl (Chaney) Rankin. He is survived by four brothers, Walter E., Eckhart, with whom he resided; John T. and Clayton A. Rankin, both of Frostburg, and James Rankin, Waltersburg, Pa., and four sisters, Miss Shirley Rankin and Mrs. E. Davies, both of Frostburg; Mrs. Robert Thomas, Corriganville, and Mrs. John R. Neder, Mt. Savage. He was a veteran of World War II and the Korean War. The body will remain at the Hafer Funeral Home, Frostburg, where a service will be held Tuesday at 2 p.m. Rev. Elwood Settle, pastor of the First Baptist Church, will officiate, and burial will be in Frostburg Memorial Park.

has been busy and chaotic for our family. We've been sick with the
stomach flu at the beginning of July, then the fires broke out and now
my husband has had to leave out of town for work. The whole month of
July has flown by so very fast and I cannot believe it's already over.
I remember the months of March, April, and May going by so slowly. June
came and went just nicely, but July....where did it go?
I took a
ton of wildflower pictures each time I went for walks with my daughter.
I think I will save those for the fall or winter when I don't have any
"gardening topics" to blog about.
My zucchini, cucumbers and
pumpkins (and even my sunflower today) looked dreadful again. I know
that they are watered well and there is no real reason other than the
sun/heat. It's hurting them so much, all wilty and limp. I don't know
what I am going to do but I have to figure something out. I think I am
going to have to fashion something to shade them for a few days (or
longer depending on how long this heat wave sticks around). I never
heard of zucchini, cucumbers and pumpkins having trouble in the heat,
but I guess anything that is in excess could hurt plants. I think I am
going to tie a sheet over the zucchini patch and who knows what over
the pumpkins. I will be sure to take a picture with my solution to my
sun problem.
Hummm, it's kind of windy right now. I wonder why. I hope it will cool down just a bit.
Here are some pictures of my garden:
More soon....thanks for reading...

On December 30, the magnificent Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater's New York City Center season closed. The month-long, much-anticipated celebration of Alvin Ailey's world-renowned company, now led by Artistic Director Robert Battle, was marked by new productions, audience favorites, Company classics and farewell wishes.
Crowd-pleaser Grace, choreographed by Ronald K. Brown for Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in 1999 and set to the spirited music of Nigeria's Fela Kuti, was welcomed back and Another Night, choreographed by newcomer Kyle Abraham and set to Art Blakey & The Jazz Messenger's rendition of Dizzy Gillespie's, A Night in Tunisia, had its world premiere.
On December 9, fans paid tribute to long-time Ailey dancer Renee Robinson who was handpicked by Mr. Ailey himself. It was Robinson's last season dancing with the Company after three decades.
At the start of the season on November 28, Battle relased the following statement: "I'm thrilled to be further expanding Ailey's diverse repertory with new voices and talented contemporary choreographers that showcase the depth and breadth of the dancers' artistry. Audiences will experience new treasures, along with encores of last season's notable works and beloved pieces from Ailey's rich history, including a program that highlights our founder Alvin Ailey," said Artistic Director Robert Battle. "Between our Opening Night Gala Benefit and the Season Finale, there will be a variety of special programs that feature live music, all new works and a celebration of two much-admired Ailey family members who will be taking a bow - Sharon Gersten Luckman and Renee Robinson."

At his event announcing a modern-day version of the Contract with America, he got angry when a reporter asked how his fundraising is going. Seema Mehta reports the story:
"See, I knew you couldn't resist. I'm not going to answer you," Gingrich said, speaking to reporters in an auditorium at Principal Financial Group. "You should really go home and think about why you would even ask that today."
We're thinking it's because tomorrow is the last day of the fundraising quarter and because Gingrich was $1 million in debt as of the last filing — and he'd vowed to do well at raising money this period. But that's just us.

OHSA Emphasizing Isocyanate Protection
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) announced a new National Emphasis Program to protect workers from the serious health effects from occupational exposure to isocyanates. OSHA develops national emphasis programs to focus outreach efforts and inspections on specific hazards in an industry for a three-year period. Through this program, OSHA will focus on workplaces in general, construction and maritime industries that use isocyanate compounds in an effort to reduce occupational illnesses and deaths.
"Workers exposed to isocyanates can suffer debilitating health problems for months or even years after exposure," said Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health Dr. David Michaels. "Through this program, OSHA will strengthen protections for workers exposed to isocyanates."
Isocyanates are chemicals that can cause occupational asthma, irritation of the skin, eyes, nose and throat, and cancer. Deaths have occurred due to both asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis from isocyanates exposure. Respiratory illnesses also can be caused by isocyanates exposure to the skin. Isocyanates are used in materials including paints, varnishes, auto body repair and building insulation. Jobs that involve exposure to isocyanates include the spray-on polyurethane manufacturing of products such as mattresses and car seats, and protective coatings for truck beds, boats and decks.
OSHA's Web page on Isocyanates provides additional information on recognizing potential hazards, as well as OSHA standards that address isocyanates in the general, construction and maritime industries.

Thread: FIRE MARSHAL'S
03-04-2001, 10:25 AM #1billwilliamFirehouse.com Guest
I am beginning research on the justification for body armor for Assistant Fire Marshal's (non-gun carrying, issues summons, fire lane violation enforcement-tickets, enforce the a statewide fire prevention code ((all class 1 misdemeanors))
Want to know what type of protection other localities are providing for their FM's?
Data/research on Fire Marshal injuries/deaths?
Online databases?? for this type of research ?
03-04-2001, 04:41 PM #2RichardFirehouse.com Guest
Non-peace officer fire marshals can expect to encounter hazardous situations during their work. Irate business owners, walking into a hold-up in progress, and my favorite (when conducting a motel inspection) walking into a working meth lab.
A ballistic vest may buy you enough time to escape a dangerous situation after you have been fired on. They will not replace the "street sense" you should develop to avoid getting yourself in many of these situations.
They also have saved many peace officers involved in collisions - and may fire marshal's spend a lot of driving time.
I like some of the new ultra-light vests-they are very thin and may not "print" as easily through a uniform or business shirt.

Blakes Hotel
Blakes Hotel – the very name conjures up a whole era of modern decadence. Each room at Anouska Hempel's South Ken boutique hotel has its own style, but all are inspired by various far-off lands: Russia, India, Turkey… The decor, while perhaps a little too redolent of the Eighties for some, is testament to Ms Hempel's impeccable taste and astonishing attention to detail.

Blakes – the very name conjures up a whole era of modern London decadence. The first time I visited Anouska Hempel's South Ken boutique hotel, it was to interview a famous film director who had decided to take a suite, with his glamorous girlfriend, for the filming of his new movie. The shoot ended up dragging on, unsurprisingly, for more than six months. I remember thinking what an indulgent gesture this was, but how he couldn't have bettered his choice. From the moment you walk up the steps into reception (the subtle oriental decor sets the tone for the whole hotel), Blakes whispers seducti

Bananas and Cream Bundt Cake with Brown Butter Glaze
There's just nothing like the aroma of banana bread baking in the oven. It has tantalized me since I was a little girl, so when I found this recipe a few months ago, I had to make it! It is everything I hoped it would be; dense, moist with sour cream, great banana flavor, and the frosting- oh the frosting! It is sinfully rich, delicious and I wanted to eat it with a spoon! I found this gem of a recipe at Bunny's Warm Oven, so please check it out. Her cake looks much nicer than mine as I almost let the frosting get too thick to drizzle over the cake, but that didn't stop it from tasting amazing! And I wanted to share this with you before I leave Thursday to go on a
retreat with some friends from church. I'll be gone until Saturday evening and I'm so looking forward to it. We're going to the lake for a few days of refreshing for body and spirit with several hundred other ladies of kindred spirit. And we are always served the best meals. As much as I love to cook, I always enjoy letting someone else do it for awhile!
So, if you need a dessert for this weekend, try this wonderful Banana Cake, or even my Four Layer Pudding Dessert. I look forward to reading all your recipes when I get back. Have a great week!

Increased duration of breastfeeding associated with decreased risk of diabetes
Women who breastfeed longer have a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes, according to a study in the November 23/30 issue of JAMA.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus affects about 9 million adult women in the United States, according to background information in the article. The disease and its complications impose a considerable burden on the health care system, absorbing $1 of every $10 spent on health care. Multiple lifestyle factors, including diet, exercise, and obesity, are associated with risk of diabetes.
Previous studies have demonstrated improved insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance during lactation compared with nonlactating mothers. Although these and other findings have suggested that maternal lactation may reduce future risk of type 2 diabetes, no study has directly examined this association.
Alison M. Stuebe, M.D., of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, and colleagues studied the association between lactation duration and development of type 2 diabetes. The researchers analyzed data on 83,585 parous (having given birth) women who were part of the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) and 73,418 parous women who were in the Nurses' Health Study II (NHS II). In the NHS, 5,145 cases of type 2 diabetes were diagnosed between 1986 and 2002, and in the NHS II, 1,132 cases were diagnosed between 1989 and 2001. In analyses restricted to women who reported a birth in the past 15 years and controlling for current body mass index and other relevant risk factors for type 2 diabetes, there was a 15 percent reduced risk of diabetes in the NHS and 14 percent reduced risk in the NHS II per additional year of breastfeeding. Among women who reported their last birth more than 15 years ago, there was no association between duration of lactation and type 2 diabetes in the NHS II and a substantially reduced association in the NHS.
"In conclusion, increased duration of breastfeeding was associated with reduced risk of type 2 diabetes in 2 large cohorts of women. Together with clinical evidence of improved glucose homeostasis [equilibrium] in lactating women, these data suggest that lactation may reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in young and middle-aged women. Further clinical studies are needed to confirm this finding and to elucidate the physiologic mechanisms for an inverse association between duration of breastfeeding and risk of type 2 diabetes," the authors write.

Counterexample Generation in Probabilistic Model Checking
Han, T. and Katoen, J.P. and Damman, B. (2009) Counterexample Generation in Probabilistic Model Checking. IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 35 (2). pp. 241-257. ISSN 0098-5589
Abstract: | Providing evidence for the refutation of a property is an essential, if not the most important, feature of model checking. This paper considers algorithms for counterexample generation for probabilistic CTL formulae in discrete-time Markov chains. Finding the strongest evidence (i.e., the most probable path) violating a (bounded) until-formula is shown to be reducible to a single-source (hop-constrained) shortest path problem. Counterexamples of smallest size that deviate most from the required probability bound can be obtained by applying (small amendments to) k-shortest (hop-constrained) paths algorithms. These results can be extended to Markov chains with rewards, to LTL model checking, and are useful for Markov decision processes. Experimental results show that typically the size of a counterexample is excessive. To obtain much more compact representations, we present a simple algorithm to generate (minimal) regular expressions that can act as counterexamples. The feasibility of our approach is illustrated by means of two communication protocols: leader election in an anonymous ring network and the Crowds protocol. |

Being in for a day doesn't count: patient experiences of day surgery
Mottram, A 2009, Being in for a day doesn't count: patient experiences of day surgery , in: British Sociological Association Annual Conference, 15-18April 2009, Cardiff. (Submitted)
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Abstract : A qualitative study, utilising the Grounded Theory methodology, was undertaken to explore the experiences of patients undergoing day surgery in two day surgery units in the United Kingdom. 145 patients were interviewed on three occasions over a two year period. A major theme to emerge from the data was the ambiguity presented to the patient in relation to the sick role. Throughout the data it was clear that there were some difficulties encountered by the patient sample regarding the cultural norms and expectations relating to the sick role. Of concern to the patients was society's attitude which seems to deny to the day surgery patients the full entitlement of the privileges associated with the sick role. Day Surgery patients wanted to feel comfortable in a role that was socially acceptable to society. Patient expectations of Day Surgery gave rise to other dilemmas concerning appropriation of the sick role. Due to the speed of the service many patients actively resisted this role. This could have implications for their recovery. A large number of patients wished for a limited ascription of the sick role whilst a minority actively sought to acquire the sick role. Parsons "Sick Role" offers a useful framework of analysis and provides insight into the dilemmas of patients undergoing day surgery. Clinical implications of these findings include the necessity of providing detailed patient information to encourage realistic expectations of day surgery.

We won't be trying for a few years, but I doubt that I'll be comfortable getting opinions then. We only have one name for Ivan's potential brother and we would appreciate your thoughts on it and how they sound together. I am adding a mock surname, Pistachio, because I think it makes a huge difference in a name. Of course, the surname is not Pistachio, but it has the same initial, ending, syllables, and cadence.
Dexter Theo Pistachio
Please excuse the strange title, I have no idea why I added 'and Ivan'. o.OLast edited by pistachio; September 23rd, 2013 at 10:58 AM.

Oh, we were a little concerned about that too, but it actually kind of felt right anyway. Thank you!

Ivan and Dexter are awesome together. They both has a similar manliness to them but with such different temperaments that I think they are very complimentary to one another.
I also love Dexter Pistachio (Can I steal your LN because it rocks!!!) Dexter counteracts the slightly frilly Pistachio so well that it feels beautifully well rounded. I do agree that -o endings in Theo and Pistachio are a bit awkward but since it's a middle name I don't think it really matters all that much and that Dexter Theo is a great combo.
I'd say go for it. Two thumbs up....if my husbands has no vote, then....

Mustang Shelby GT500
Posted By Lonnie Johnson On January 14, 2010 @ 9:00 am In Car Reviews | No Comments
The all new 2010 Mustang Shelby GT500 is gone. It has taken me a week to calm down enough to be able to be objective about this car. It quite frankly humbles people. Either those who drive it, or those who drive against it. It feels like Ford changed almost everything from the last edition of the GT500. The new car is more refined. there's no clue of the 540hp that is waiting to be unleashed. That's thanks in part to the new clutch assembly. In the previous model the clutch was a crippler. Having had a few back surgeries I found it very difficult to use. Not so with the new car. The clutch is almost effortless and the new short-throw shifter makes it a breeze to run through the gears. And best of all, the shifter is topped off with a que- ball made by some folks who make real que-balls.
I will say that it was the most peculiar assimilation of color I've ever seen. The test car was a red convertible with white stripes. Not bad, right? Well, the top was BLACK. Further complicating things were the smoke gray wheels. Not a great look. The coupe comes with better looking wheels. Maybe red with black stripes would have been better. For my money, the best looking convertibles are black…triple black. That would have been a great choice of color for this car. Sinister black.
If there is one thing that stands out about the car to me, it is the wide spectrum of interested parties. Everyone takes notice. In the parking lot or on the highway, the red convertible GT500 made people ask about it. Even some guy in the parking lot of Academy Sports, who was driving a BMW 335i, had to pay his respects. Moms and Grandma's with cameras. This car got more looks than the all-new Camaro I was in a couple of weeks ago.
I'm seriously glad Ford decided to re-do the clutch. Same hydraulic clutch as before, they just made a smaller diameter slave cylinder which, oddly enough, makes the clutch easier to push. The fact that a car with this kind of power can be manipulated this easily is a sin. Hell, the clutch in the new GT500 is softer than the Dallas Cowboys in December.
As for what the clutch controls, the fire-breathing, manhood-wilting 540hp 5.4 liter four-cam killing machine. Well, it's nice! It humbled a local power nut whose daily driver is a 630hp (est.) Ford Lighting with like a trillion pounds of boost going through a supercharger. Isn't Ford great? Sitting on top of the GT500's 5.4 liter motor is a super charger blowing an easy six pounds of boost. Imagine a little tuning there. There are stories on the internet…unbelievable, what this car is capable of.
But, if you just want to cruise around and know that you could embarrass many who are uninformed, then, do that. Go buy the new Shelby GT500 and just putt around town or lobe down the interstate. The interior of the convertible is church prayer quiet compared to other convertibles I've driven. That allows you to enjoy the fact that the seats are perfectly bolstered and extremely comfortable. Not to mention the sound system. That's easy to enjoy.
Yeah she broke my heart when she left but….goodtimes
Although the Shelby GT500 isn't eligible for the C.A.R.S. program I'm sure there are many Ford dealers happy to sell you one. Go see for yourself. And make her yours to keep.
